About the role
with paragraphs. - Responsibilities: there is a "Responsibilities" heading in source. We'll outputResponsibilities
with- for each bullet.
- Basic Qualifications: that's qualifications. Could be
Qualifications
(or Requirements?). The instruction says use headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we have both Requirements and Qualifications. Basic Qualifications likely go under Qualifications. Preferred Skills And Experience go under Skills. Additional Requirements (travel, work hours, location) maybe under Requirements. Also ITAR Requirements maybe also under Requirements? But we need to avoid boilerplate like EEO etc. ITAR is a requirement (citizenship). Should we include? It's a requirement for the job. It's substantive. We'll include under Requirements. - Compensation and Benefits: includes Pay Range and benefits. So we need Pay and Benefits sections. Pay: we have pay range levels. Benefits: medical, vision, dental, 401k, disability, life insurance, paid parental leave, discounts, vacation, holidays, sick leave. Also mention long-term incentives, stock, etc. So we will havePay

with ul list. - Schedule: not mentioned. No schedule info. So omit. - Requirements: we have Additional Requirements (travel up to 10%, long hours, weekends, onsite Hawthorne, no remote).

Must not include boilerplate like EEO, legal, scam-warning, duplicated lines, navigation, cookie etc. Remove those. We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences. Let's extract details precisely. Intro paragraph(s): "SpaceX was founded under the belief that a future where humanity is out exploring the stars is fundamentally more exciting than one where we are not.
